Creation of Test Environment
I am in the process of setting up a test environment for SD+, our live is getting too big and busy to be using for my fiddling etc.. I have a few questions: Is it possible to have this setup on a Windows XP Pro machine with SQL Server 2005? When I restore database, will this also bring across the settings of SD+, like Mail fetch etc, or will this all need to be setup if needed? I have installed the same version of SQL etc as LIVE server etc, but the live server is not running XP pro but Windows server,

Search fields
I mentioned this bug quite a while back, and after several hotfixes it has still not been addressed, so I am mentioning it again. In the Search area in the left-hand column, there is a drop-down menu with different areas of the system to search in. As of 7.0, the options Asset, Workstation, and Software are not visible in that drop-down menu unless you are currently viewing the Asset tab. For example, if I am viewing the request list, I can't directly search for a workstation keyword, because the
HIde expired or non existant assets
I need a way to hide /mask Assets that no longer exist in the main interface. We removed the accounts from AD but the rescan of the Domain and import does not remove those records and it should not. BUT there should be a way to not have to look at these items in the program. Relying on Report filtering is not adequate.

Report for assets on a contract
This is a report that will show you assets (resources) for a contract. You must use the query builder for this one, as you cannot make it in the wizard to my knowledge. Hopefully someone else finds this useful.

Documentation - is source available?
Hi We are about to write end user documentation for our associates. The Service Desk User Guide that you put out in PDF format is excellent but it covers areas that we may not use. If I could get a Word copy I could do some edits and publish the results. Are you willing to share? Thanks Jerry
Asset Mangement
I am checking out the asset management, and I think its a cool feature, it lets me see what licences are used so I dont have to keep track...except I have a corporate licence for Office 2003, and it is picking up the licence as valid for only three users. How do I get it to correct that information?

Asset field not populating automatically in build 7013
Hi. We are using Servicedesk Plus 7013 Enterprise. After the update to 7013 the asset field no longer populates automatically when a requestor name is chosen from the New Request screen. It flickers as if it has populated but doesn't. We then have to click the icon next to the asset field to choose the asset associated to the requestor. This was supposed to be one of the fixes implemented in 7013, but actually it has made the problem worse. I would appreciate a response from support please.

Change Due Date Permission for Roles
Technicians should have the option of setting/changing the due date. I find myself having to gve technicians admin access just so that they can set the due dates. Let's face it, the SLA's aren't a blanket solution for due dates. I think that roles in servicedesk plus should be able to be given the permission to change due dates. This permission can be given or taken from a role at the administrators discretion. (<- Feature Request). My 2 cents.

ServiceDesk system run out of space within SQL 2005 Express
We have just had our ServiceDesk system run out of space within SQL 2005 Express. The SQL server is stating we are only licensed for a 4G data file. We plan to upgrade the server but in the short term we currently have no system. In order to get our system up and running quickly we need to find data we can safely remove from within the database. Is there any data that is temporary we can purge? Any help on this issue would be appreciated.
Modeling virtual environments
I'm interested in Service Desk Plus, and I have the Enterprise demo installed. I can;t quite visualise how to model a typical virtual environment, in the CMDB part of this product. I have Multiple VM Hosts, these form my VM Cluster. I have Multiple VM Guests, these require the VM Cluster to be available. Thinking about assets and thier relationships. I would intuitively want to define that VM CLuster *contains* VM-Guests. But it seem only components can be contained. Similarly I would intuitivly

Asset Management Query - User Rights
Just want to check my understanding , there is no way to create a technician user that can just update non IT assets, for instance to keep track of telephones and mobiles, whilst not allowing them access to change workstation info etc. Don't want to submit a feature request for something that is already achieveable.

Can anyone shed any light on what field, and in which table is responsible for hiding merged requests please? Cheers
